Welcome!

I am an enthusiastic computer scientist from Lüdenscheid and work as a PhD student and research associate in the Semantic Computing Group at the Center for Cognitive Interaction Technology (CITEC) at Bielefeld University. My research as part of the SAIL project ("SustAInable Life-cycle of Intelligent Socio-Technical Systems") deals with issues in the area of Natural Language Processing. In particular, I am working on question answering from healthcare fora.

I graduated from TU Dortmund University with a Master of Science with honours in Computer Science (minor in German Studies) in March 2023. A short CV can be found at "about me".

I am always happy to exchange ideas with other researchers and like-minded people, whether for networking, possible collaborations, or discussing technical or other topics.
